Fluorogenic substrate based on the C-terminus derivatization of ubiquitin with 7-amino-4-trifluoromethylcoumarin (AFC). Similar to ubiquitin-AMC, this is an exquisitely sensitive deubiquitinating enzyme substrate and is useful for studying ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolytic activity when detection sensitivity or continuous monitoring is essential. The fluorophore has a larger Stokes radius than AMC which is useful to reduce compound interference in HTS assays.

Use & Storage

Use: 

Substrate concentrations for assay range from 0.1-1 μM. Typical enzyme concentrations for UCH-L3 are 10-100 pM and for Isopeptidase-T are 10-100 nM. Release of AMC fluorescence by UCH enzymes can be monitored using Ex400 nm and Em505 nm wavelengths, respectively. 

Storage: 
Store at -80°C. Avoid multiple freeze/thaw cycles.solubilization. Avoid multiple freeze/thaw cycles.
